Only adding to their unbelievable cuteness are the following facts:
– they are not scaly or slimy, but very soft and velvety, especially that plush fatty tail.
– when the angle is right, you can look in one of their ears and clearly see light coming through; there’s only a thin membrane in between.
Love. Them.

Leopard geckos are darling! And if you think this one’s cute, you should see them when they are asleep. Especially the little baby ones! They have the sweetest little smiles on their faces, too. BTW, snakes are also cute! More reptile photos here, please!

Whoa, this lizzzzard totally thinks s/he’s a kitten. Aww. So fluffy (implied). And the caption is perfect, given the way the pic loads from the top down; I really did think it was going to be a snake for a bit.

On another note (heh) — Kikileo — I play guitar a little, and you’ve totally lost me. Tabs? As in, tablature? Where do you get that? Mm-hmm… who’s been into the vino, now?

To clear up some confusion– when I first saw this post, it was titled “Just the two of us,” with the lyrics and chords for the song, and the guinea pigs which now have that title and text were nowhere to be seen. Hence some of the early comments that make no sense now. It wasn’t entirely implausible that someone who’d been hitting the bottle might apply that title to this photo, given the expression on the gecko’s face.

AWWWWWW!!! *wispering to others on the board* Does he have a brother??? he is so darn cute!!! oh! and he looks so heathy! (and clean for a lizzard) i favor snakes myself, but this little guy is almost as good! :D

yes to baby snakes. i personnally am far more inclined to furry and scaly!!!i like some insects too but not so much feathery and not too sure how i feel about outright hairless…ya know fyi.
jes’ makin conversation….

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!! I sooooooooo luff reptiles ^-^ wiieej can’t get enough… must…have…reptiles! I don’t have any though =( I want snakes and other reptiles… and also frogs and stuff… but the pet I want the most of al: *drums* a dragon(real dragon… wings and firebreath and all) I know dragons still excist and i luff them! have 35 statues of them in my room (little statues)

to all those who think these reptiles are icky, gross, shouldn’t be kept, etc – lighten up. they’re cleaner than dogs(by far…), they tend to take pretty good care of themselves(very low maintenance critters…), and they’re so tame that they’re recommended for CHILDREN. they’re so placid that even my mom – who’s terrified of anything with scales – doesn’t mind my little girl.

feh. all you haters – may you be stuck in a reptile sanctuary without shelter in the afterlife.

That is the most precious picture ever! She looks just like my Sheri. Check out my link, I have a bunch of pictures of my geckos sleeping like angels and doing other cute things. My little albino died of kidney failure last year, but I got another one who is doing great. She’s a little shy, but she’s still a good girl. I love geckos :)

It IS a gecko, and it is also a lizard. Geckos are a group of lizard species. And while most reptiles definitely have a harder time being cute than the fur-and-feathers crowd, this little guy does it for me. It’s the vulnerable and relaxed posture, the feet, and the fantastic caption.
